Applying Sports Game Tape Review to Spiritual Growth: Insights from Rabbi Kalish

0:01 The holy and angelic Rabbi Kailashlita once said that sports was created to be used as a parable as Michelin, to deliver clarity to young gentlemen and help them understand Torah concepts and lesser ideas, and to believe that this would be perhaps an example of this. I was just thinking. You know, after any sort of debacle, any sports game, truthfully, in any endeavor in which a team is very determined and takes it very seriously, if it shouldn't go well and they should lose the run over, the reporters will say you know, why'd you lose this game?

0:42 What are you going to do differently? They always say well, you know, I got to go back and watch the tape, I got to go watch the film and see you know what went wrong, to see it from different points of view. And I believe that this adds a little bit of context and some clarity. And now getting into divine matters, shlomo HaMelachitelsas in Chaf Ches, chaf Gimel, that Moichchihach Ad-Odom, acharei Chayin, yimsa Mimachlik Lushin that a person who reproves a man will in the end find way more favor than he who flatters him. Some honest reproach, it says the medrish. Who is the man who gives honest reproach and refrains from flattering?

1:27 That is Moshe Rabbeinu and the rebuk he gave in Safer Dvarum. And what's interesting, rabir Rakhem points out, is that all the musts are given at least at the beginning of the Safer isn't encouragement or giving reproach in the moving forward of what to do. The beginning, when the posse is referring to it, is all matters of the past clarifying. And this is what you did there and you gotta watch the film session to see what happened in this city and you complain here. When you clarify and you sit down with the team and you examine your Mevarer, your actions, that is the person, that clarity, you're gonna find favor in it.

2:09 Truthfully, when it comes to Moshe's study, the ickr, one of the main points is to be able to have bravery and courage to go back and to say is this right? Did I do right and not God forbid the opposite, which a new novel idea, the opposite of reproach, is flattering, for I may be able to give one strong reason why my friend missed Chakras yesterday it's cause he's lazy. But when it comes to why I didn't go to Night Seder last night, I have 30 reasons, all telling you why I have Shalom Bayes and I need to stay home and make sure my wife is happy and I eat the food and then I gotta go see my father and just keep it off. The aim and all the different reasons. It's flattery and ultimately, moshe is about a film session, a study session to see where you went wrong and to perfect it in the future.
